B
THE STEWART COLLECTION
While there, he attended, two hours a day, the drawing-school
of M. Alaux. Treated contemptuously by his fellow-students on
account of his unaristocratic business connections, Bouguereau
nevertheless took the first prize at the end of the year, the award
causing such excitement in the school that a riot was the conse-
quence. Bouguereau then resolved to turn his attention to art, and
after he had earned sufficient money by painting portraits at Sain-
tonge, where his uncle was a priest, he went to Paris and entered
the studio of Picot, and later t£cole des Beaux Arts, where his
progress was rapid. He gained the Prix de Rome in 1850, and

Born at Pilve di Cadore, in 1477 ; died in Venice in 1 576. Real
name, Tiziano Vecelli, or Vecellio. Learned rudiments of painting
at Cadore ; went to Venice at the age of nine or ten, and was ap-
prenticed to an unknown artist, perhaps Sebastian Zuccati. He
was thrown into daily intercourse with Gentile and Giovanni
Bellini, Palma and Giorgione. In 1511 he entered the service
of Alfonso L, Duke of Ferrara. There are no striking incidents
in his life, which was one of unceasing labor. In 1530 he went
to Bologna, where he met Charles V., who created him Count
Palatine and Knight of the Golden Spur, by letters patent, be-
stowed many high privileges on him, and, both then and after-
ward, sat to him for his portrait. Taken in their totality, Titian's
pictures fairly entitle him to be called the greatest of all painters.

JEAN LEON GER6ME,

6 Rue de Bruxf.lles.
Dear Mr. Stewart:
My picture, "The Chariot Race," having been sent you two or three
days ago, I will add a few words on the subject.
The scene occurs in the "Circus Maximus," the grandest monument of
Rome, which is situated at the foot of the Palatine Hill, in such fashion as
DM
Paris
MODERN PAINTINGS
59
that all the structures erected on the hill were contiguous to the Circus,
thus giving a picturesque and imposing aspect to the whole.
The rectangular edifice at nearly the center of the picture is the " Septi-
zonium," a seven-story building, as its name indicates ; the object of which
has never been known. There was another story in the time of Pope Sex-
tus V., and during that era there was an engraving made of it, which we
now possess, and which is of very great service in the restoration of the
building.
In the upper part are the surrounding walls of the Palace of the Caesars ;
a little further to the left is the residence of Augustus and the theater of that
Emperor. From there, by a subterranean passage, he was able to reach
his box, where the statue of Rome was located.
This restoration has been made in accordance with a plan of Ancient
Rome, which was engraved on the stone pavement of a temple, and which
has been conveyed to the Capitol ; accordingly, there is an absolute fidelity
both as to the location of the different monuments, and also, which is
equally important, in regard to the dimensions, for it must be understood
that the Circus would hold 150,000 spectators.
The Romans were passionately fond of the races ; and the Circus had
become just as much of a necessity to the multitude as food. One might
well inscribe on this picture, as its epigraph, the verses of Horace :
"There are who joy them in the Olympic strife
And love the dust they gather in the course ;
The goal by hot wheels shunn'd, the famous prize.
Exalt them to the gads that rule mankind."
These, my dear sir, are the details as concisely as I can give them, to
which 1 add the assurances of my cordial regard and best wishes.

/£^£^Thusnelda at the Triumphal Entry of
Germanicus into Rome
KARL THEODOR VON PILOTY, . Munich
Painted to order for the late A. T. Stewart, Esq. At the request of Em-
peror William was exhibited in Berlin before being sent to this country.
The large painting now in the Munich Gallery was painted subsequent
to the above.
The following description is by the painter, Piloty :
The Emperor Tiberius, surrounded by his Courtiers (Favorites, Coun-
cilors, Lictors, Senators, and Roman Women), has taken his place upon a
tribune under a spread canopy, in order that the triumphal procession of
Germanicus may pass before him.
MODERN PAINTINGS 63
Germanicus appears in the background upon a triumphal car, accom-
panied by his five sons, surrounded by Trophies of Victory, and is greeted
by the applause and acclamations of the people who are to be seen at the
Arch of Triumph.
In fiont of the car, reaching from the middle distance to the foreground
of the picture, are the German Captives being led in chains. As princi-
pal figure of this group and of the picture walks Thusnelda, in the cos-
tume of the Germans, with her son Tumelicus (a child of three years), ac-
companied by nurse and an attendant. Before her is the Priest Libes,
coupled (chained) together with Warriors, escorted by Roman Soldiers,
who insult them. Iiehind Thusnelda are to be seen her brothers, leaders
of the Cherusker, chained together, with bears, etc., etc. The foreground to
the left is occupied by populace of Rome, who mock and insult Thusnelda.
Thusnelda. having been forcibly carried away from her husband Ar-
minius, a German Prince, by her father, Segest, was, from reasons which
appeared to him advantageous for his own personal interest and the condi-
tion of the Germans, betrayed and delivered into the hands of the Romans.
In the picture Tiberius has selected Segest to stand before the steps
of his throne, from where he is forced to witness the shame of his own
daughter; he is mocked by the Senators sitting near him, as they point
to the prisoners below.
Strabo describes, as an eye-witness, this event ; he, as well as Tacitus,
although Romans, express plainly their sympathy for the devotion and love
of country exhibited by Thusnelda, whose personality will ever be a sub-
ject of poetical matter for an artist.
The inclosed Photograph is a reproduction of the first hasty sketch
made for the picture. (This Photograph will be presented to the purchaser
of Painting.)

A. T. Stewart. Esq. New York - ™™<*ry 27, 1863.
Dear Sir : The portrait of Alexander von Humboldt this day delivered
to you was purchased by me in fall of 1858, when partly finished, the head
and hand and drapery being al the time complete, but the background
remained unfinished until 1859. The illustrious subject of the painting
died on the 6th of May, 1859, at which time the picture was at the foot of
his bed. . . .
At the suggestion of Humboldt, Mount Mane, at the left of the picture,
and Chimborazo, on the right, were added.
The picture was received in New York in summer of 1859, and has ever
since remained in my possession and has never been copied. The certificate
of the artist which accompanies this letter speaks for itself. . . .
Yours truly, Wil. Aufermann.

To Mons. the Baron Davillier.
My Very Dear Friend: I regret much to learn that you have been
suffering, and that 1 have not been in Paris to keep you company, for if
lacking wit to amuse you, I could at least distract you, by prattling about
old curiosities. On the subject of my works, I will speak only of my picture,
which is 1 meter 37 centimeters long by O 72 high. There are a good
many figures, and 1 don't exactly know what to call it, as it is in some
degree an epitome of my summer's life. Could I not call it Villegiature—
"Country Life" ? In fact, there are women on the grass, bathers who are
taking headers into the waves, the ruins of an old castle, the walls of a
garden, the entrance into a village, etc., etc., all that in bright sunlight, not
a single ray omitted; everything is fair and gay, and how could it be other-
wise since we have so happily passed our summer ? My picture is not yet
finished ; it wants a month's work yet

96 x 54. Dated 1875
JEAN LOUIS ERNEST MEISSONIER, Paris
Correspondence in Relation to Meissonier's Great Picrca*,
" Friedland, 1807."
My Dear Mr. Stewart :
I have delayed writing you because my letter must be a last adieu to a
work of many years — an act of final separation.
You will comprehend why I wished to do so only at the tast moment ; as.
however great may be my satisfaction to know you are to be its possessor.
I can only part with it with pain — a picture which has been for so long a
time the life and joy of my studio.
Le ■voiia, that which will soon be in your possession, be good enough to
receive as a friend ; not as one that pleases at the first contact, and is then
soon forgotten, but as one of those who, by intimate acquaintance, is loved
more and more. Permit me to believe that when you are looking at this
picture— on which I have bestowed all the science and experience I have
been able to acquire in my art— your pleasure will constantly grow greater.
I have the conviction — which I do not express without a certain pride —
that the value of this work will increase with time. What may or can be
said of it will pass away, but the picture will remain, to be an honor to both
of us ; and although it can defend itself, yet, among the thousands of per-
sons who have hastened to sec it, many have done it injustice with a certain
malevolent appreciation— still I have the right, having painted it with so
much sincerity of purpose, to defend and explain it. Strange as this may
appear, it must be done ; because, however singular may be the fact, some,
I understand, have not been pleased to go and see it for themselves, but
have adopted the unfair judgment of others.
I did not intend to paint a Battle — I wanted to paint Napoleon at the
zenith of his glory ; I wanted to paint the love, the adoration of the soldiers
for the great Captain in whom they had faith, and for whom they were
ready to die.
I previously had represented, in the picture " 1814," the heartrending
end of the Imperial Dream— those men, only recently intoxicated with glory,
now shown exhausted, and no longer believing in their invincible chiet
My palette then did not have colors sad enough for the purpose— but to-
102
T1IK STEWART COLLFXTION
day. in " Friedland, 1807," wishing everything to appear brilliant at this
triumphant moment, it seemed to me I was unable to fmd colors sufficiently
dazzling. No shade should be upon the Imperial face, to lake from him the
epic character I wished to give him. The battle, already commenced, was
necessary to add to the enthusiasm of the soldiers, and make the subject
stand forth, but not to diminish it by saddening details. All such shadows
I avoided, and presented nothing but a dismounted cannon and some grow-
ing wheat which would never ripen. This was enough.
The men and the Emperor are in the presence of each other. The sol-
diers cry to him that they are his, and the impassive Chief, whose Imperial
will directs the masses that move around him, salutes his devoted army.
He and they plainly comprehend each other, and absolute confidence is ex-
pressed in every face.
Such was the idea as it leaped from my brain at the first instant when
I embodied the picture in thought ; and which, in spite of the long time I
have taken to put it on canvas, has always remained with me so clear and
plain that I have never in any manner modified it.
As to the execution, only a painter (and one of great experience) can
say what time, labor, and patience have been broHght to bear upon this
work to produce a single whole out of so many diverse elements. Only
he can say how difficult it is, from such varied materials, to put aside all
those artifices which so often are used in art to cover defects. The grow-
ing wheat is even proof of the difficulties I have encountered in covering it
with the dust which hides so many things.
I said to you, at the beginning, and again let me repeat it, that I have
faith in my work. Time will consolidate and strengthen it more and more,
and I am also certain your enlightened love for art will protect it, in case
there should be need.
Now, dear sir, let me close by offering you my portrait. You desired to
have one, and I have had the pleasure of painting it for you myself. With
it I trust you will speak of me more intimately, and will always be enabled
to recall how much I am
Your devoted E. Meissonier.
Poissy, January 27. 1876.
New York, February 18, 1876.
Mv Dear Mr. Meissonier:
It gives me pleasure to acknowledge the safe arrival of your superb
picture. " Friedland, 1807," also your valued letter, with the portrait, as a
souvenir of regard ; which I shall always cherish and prize as coming
"from my friend Meissonier. "
The grand painting each day develops such additional beauty and
MODERN PAINTINGS
«03
interest that I am constantly deriving new enjoyments from its po*-
session.
As you remark, the period of the picture, and the battle it recalls, rep-
resent the height of Napoleon's Imperial greatness, when confidence in his
destiny was entertained not only by the French people, but by himself. The
excitement of the troopers, and the calm face of the Emperor, surrounded
by his Marshals, equally calm, and never dreaming of defeat, arc all faith-
fully shown by you.
The beholder cannot but feel thrilled with the emotion and excitement
the picture so faithfully illustrates, and the memory involuntarily reverts
to a period when certainly the glory of France was at its zenith, and
when the confidence of the Emperor in his future was at its highest
elevation.
The labor and care, on your part, which the painting exhibits are re-
marked by all ; and I may add that the work is one upon which you may
rest your fame with perfect confidence.
Accept my sincere thanks for the fidelity with which you have com
plctcd this great work, and especially accept my thanks for the souvenir of
your portrait which accompanied it.
Sincerely your friend,
Alex. T. Stewakt.

The commission for the above picture was placed with M. Bougucreau,
by the late Mr. A. T. Stewart, in 1874, with the understanding that the
painting was to be the artist's greatest work, and not a nude subject ; the
picture was not finished until after the death of Mr. Stewart. When finished
in 1878, M. Bougucreau stated that he considered the work his masterpiece.

DESCRIPTION UK THE PAINTING.
" The painting tells its own story so completely and simply that it will be
sufficient to indicate its principal points. In the center, the States of the
Union are personified by beautiful maidens, grouped around two hand-in-
hand figures, stately and noble, which represent the American Government.
One, in a white and flowing robe, is the Republic ; the other is Minerva,
so long associated with wisdom, poetry, art, science, the manufactures of
domestic life, and, above all, with the maintenance of peace, the basis of true
national prosperity. They stand, graceful in their strength, on a triumphal
car, drawn by lions, representing the solidity and sovereignty of the Ameri-
can Republic. The motto E Pluribus Unum, which tells the national
history, is inscribed upon the car. In the distance the statue of the Father
of his Country, first in peace as in war, is visible ; grateful and loving citi-
zens, who surround it, are bringing wreaths of laurel, to place on the pedestal
suitable offerings of remembrance and affection. The winged messengers
of eternal Fame linger in their heavenly flight, to proclaim to earth, air, and
ocean the glory and might of the successful Republic, and to invite the
nations to behold it.
"In the near center are the beautiful representatives of the States of the
Union — the first thirteen which adopted the Declaration of Independence
properly having the most prominent places before the car of triumph. Here
there is no distinction of North and South. They fought, in the great
contest which created the nation, side by side, as they are here repre-
sented. Between the great States of New York and Pennsylvania stands (air
Virginia, and, on the other side, Massachusetts is posed between Louisiana
and South Carolina, others being visible in the background.
"The accessories are various and expressive. Here, the Indian repre-
sentatives of the aborigines of the great continent, "the stoic of the woods,
the man without a tear," regard the wondrous scene with silent amazement
and admiration ; there, the colored race rejoice in their liberation; over
on the opposite side, in fair contrast, while the sun is rising on the consumma-
tion of the great Centennial, vessels of many nations are bearing hosts of
emigrants to the land of freedom, where Industry, Enterprise, Education,
with equal laws and full religious toleration, unite to present, as in a visible
vista, equality, wealth, and assured social position.
" The arts and sciences are represented by the implements of manufacture,
mechanics, the arts, and literature, while fruits and flowers are the symbols
of the earth's abundance ; and, to complete the picture, one of our noblest
rivers quenches the torch of War, and the spirits of the immortal founders
of the Republic ascend to join in the Great Centennial. The canvas on
which all of this is drawn is 22 by 35 feet, making, undoubtedly, the largest

and most complete allegorical picture ever exhibited on this side of the
Atlantic.
"The picture was painted upon an order of the late Alexander T. Stewart,
and was intended for the easterly end of his gallery. Proving too large for
the space, it was not used, and when the Grand Union Hotel ball-room was
designed, the plan adopted included a panel to receive this work."

Eugene Aizelin Paris
Born at Pari-:. July 10, rS2l. Pupil of Ramoy and Dumont, he
devoted himself, by preference, following the new direction which
French art wa< taking at the time he entered the field, to the
creation of graceful female subjects — women and maidens —
treated with close adherence to nature in the forms. He has
made, beside, a few stalucs for the churches of Paris. To the
former group of subjects belong his " Nyssia in the l!ath," and

The original statue, by
Hiram Powers (deceased) Florence
Bora at Woodstock, Vermont, July 29, 1S05. Died in Florence,
Italy, June 27, 1S73.
In 1817 his parents removed to Cincinnati, where he worked with
energy and industry nt any mcchanic.il employment that came to
hand. He developed remarkable ingenuity in the contrivance of
figures moving by machinery to the accompaniment of music. A
bust of Napoleon, by Canova, having come under his notice, he
was excited by the desire to become a sculptor, for which art he
had had no further training than was supplied by instruction in
the taking of plaster casts from models, in which he had been
taught by a Prussian acquaintance. Assisted by Mr. Lcngworth,
he went to Washington, and there found sufficient employment in
making busts to enable him to lay up a little money toward get-
ting to Italy. Assisted by Col. I'reston and Mr. Longworlh, he
went to Italy in 1837, and settled down into what was to prove a
life-long residence. His work consisted largely in the making of
busts, in which field he gained a wide popularity in Europe as well
as in his native country. In 1843 he produced the statue of the
Greek Slave, a work which had an immense success, fixed his
reputation the world over, and gave a great impetus to the slowly
growing culture of art in this country. The question of slavery
was just then taking on new importance in America, and Powers'
Greek Slave played no small part in the fray. Mrs. Browning
wrote a sonnet to the statue, and drew from it an argument for
the doing away with all slavery.
" Appeal, fair stone,
From God's pure height of beauty, against man's wrong;
Catch up in thy divine face not alone
East griefs but West, and strike and shame the strong,
By thunders of white silence overthrown."
Other works by Mr. Powers are the "Fisher Boy," "America,"
"California," "II Penseroso," "Eve Tempted," "Paradise
Lost," with statues of Calhoun and Webster. During his long
residence in Florence, Mr. Powers' bouse was the center of hos-
SCULPTURE
pitality to his traveling countrymen, who found in him an Ameri-
can of the old-fashioned type, quite unspoiled by foreign life and
manners, maintaining a republican rusticity and homeliness in the
midst of influences which few are found to resist. Nathaniel
Hawthorne, In his Italian Journal, has much to say about Pow-
ers : the chapters about Florence are, indeed, largely taken up with
notes of the conversations between him and the sculptor.

Lttter from Hiram Powers, Esq. , to N~. D. Morgan, dattd Dec, 7, 187/.
My Dear Sir : . . . . You desire that I should give you
something of the history of my work, which is now on its way to
you, in order that you may see it, as it were, through the medium
of the author's eyes. Well, then, I had already produced a statue
of "Eve Tempted," which was, indeed, my first ideal figure —
and the same now in the possession of Mr. A. T, Stewart, of New
York ; but I was not satisfied with my first attempt, as, indeed,
the Temptation of Eve did not afford an opportunity for the
expression of bewilderment, distress, and remorse which must
have appeared on the face and in the attitude of Eve, when she
replied, "The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat." It is less
difficult, in painting or sculpture, to give a single than a compound
expression — simple grief or joy is much easier to render than grief
with remorse, or joy with a sigh lingering within the expression of
the features.
We see these subtiltics in nature— but to render them in art rc-
i 7 S
THE STEWART COLLECTION
quires something more than artistic science. The artist must not
only see his way (science), but he must also feel his way. In
short, he must work from the heart as well as from the brain, and
his work then reflects back upon him, as it were, the offspring of
his will and understanding. The will has conceived, the under-
standing has produced ; and hence allow me to say, that without
understanding — that is, without learning, knowledge, science, prac-
tice, experience, study — uo one, however great may be his genius,
can produce a genuine work of art. As well might we expect a
poem from one who can neither read nor write.
I could never satisfy myself with an ideal work in a hurry. The
human form is infinite. It is the " Image of God ; " and I have
found that, do my best, there was always a belter in nature.
Once knowing this, I have hesitated, and sought to find it, and
this is the way to fame. One may fail, with all his care and labor,
but it is the only way. Not they who have produced the most,
but they who have done the best, stand foremost in the end. I
never felt that I had the power to charge an hundred statues — I
exhaust myself on a few. This accounts for the fact that I found
it necessary to give nearly one year's time, in all, to the model
alone of your statue of Paradise Lost. I continually found some-
thing to be improved, and am far from presuming it to be perfect.
I aimed at nobleness of form and womanly dignity of expression.
She is forlorn, but does not quite despair, for she looks up im-
ploringly. She accuses the serpent with one hand, and herself
most with the other. The serpent retires, for Eve repents — she
now resists evil.
She is not a goddess, but a woman, a primitive woman, the mother
of mankind. She has never been in society, nor is she educated.
Such has been my design, but imperfectly carried out. I trust
you will make due allowance. . . .
I am, dear sir, faithfully your ob'l serv't,
Hiram Powers.

trees most common to their habits, presenting a variety of land
and marine views, and of floral and other productions of different

This very interesting publication is undoubtedly the most mngniliccnt

turc. And although a chain of wonderful events has restored
many of the brightest gems of art to their rightful owners, so
much of excellence still remains that the gallery of the Louvre is
yet, to the man of taslc, the greatest attraction in Paris, and the
very circumstance of the dispersion of so many wonderful pro-
ductions gives additional value to the work which describes them
in a collected state.
It is necessary to observe that this work is not a mere collection of
prints, as it contains many luminous and masterly dissertations
upon the state of the arts in different ages ; observations upon the
style, excellence, and defects of the various schools in painting;
a minute description of every painting, etc., drawn with extreme
care and correctness.
